The newest front in Akiba café proprietors’ war on the sensibilities of otaku and the general public is a kigurumi themed maid café, with patrons being once again served by 10 anime masked maids of indeterminate gender.

To add to the creepiness of the experience, the doller maids are forbidden from speaking and must remain silent – this is because “there is no person inside,” it is explained.

Visitors can take solace in the fact that the event is limited in duration to a few days. A previous kigurumi themed venue also opened in 2009, and some faces may be familiar…

And, really, the "Maid Cafe" had a thing going already... Frankly, Oriental girls dressed up like maids and acting cute and demure is awesome! But with anime, though I like it a lot also, there's a difference between fantasy and reality.

Men almost always have a longer ring finger than index finger, and the opposite is true for women so the gender isn't as indeterminate as they might hope. Have a look and decide who is male and who (if any) is female.

If so the you must have developed with much lower testosterone levels then most boys. or maybe you're like 7yo and haven't hit puberty yet. the inverse can be said about girls with longer ring fingers. its possible its just unlikely.

Just imagine one of those...things leaning over you and putting the plate on your table. It is flanked by several others, and they all are looking at you - or at least seem to be, with their empty, soulless eyes. The café is totally silent, none of the patrons daring to utter so much as a word, lest they draw the attention of the café's grim staff.
